Here’s a recent news story to add to the pile:

Suspect back out on the street after arrest for attempted arson at Eureka GOP office

Short form: yet another Bernie Sanders supporter committed an act of political terrorism, this time by breaking windows at a GOP office and apparently (incompetently) trying to burn it down. This follows after leftists attempted mass murder by ramming vans into GOP voter registration events and another tried to commit mass murder with an SUV at Mar-A-Lago and Bernie workers were caught on tape suggesting democide. And let’s not forget James T. Hodgkinson, the poster child for Bernie Bros, who shot multiple people a few years back in support of Sanders’ politics. Many more stories out there of Sanders supporters committing acts of political violence great and small. Why are so many of Bernie supporters so ready to carry out acts of violence?

It’s probably simple: Bernie is a communist. Sure, he and his supporters often try to soften the blow by claiming that he is a “Democratic Socialist” and not a communist, but as has been clearly explained hereabouts before, the express aim of the Democratic Socialists is to bring about actual, factual *communism.* So Bernie claiming that he’s a Democratic Socialist and not a Communist is kinda like me explaining that I’m not a fabulously wealthy author, I’m really just a dirt poor author. While this is true, being a dirt poor author does not negate the fact that I want to be a fabulously wealthy one… just as Bernie wants actual communism. The policies he advocates for, such a limits on income that would essentially end innovation in the United States (just how much investing in Tesla and SpaceX would Musk have done had he been limited to selling PayPal for, say, a million bucks) and nationalization of major corporations, speak strongly and clearly to a worldview that is close enough to communist as to make no difference. This is clear not only to his political opponents, but also those who agree with him and his policies. And if the history of the last century taught us anything, it’s that socialist economics, from Venezuela to Zimbabwe and Cuba and Nazi Germany and Red China and the Soviet Union, lead to governmental mass violence against the public. After a century and well over a hundred million dead, no honest person can believe that this is just an accidental byproduct; instead, violence is baked into the belief that some group has the right and obligation to tell others how much they can make, what they can make, how well they can live based on their own labor. Communism and Socialism *are* violence. Communism and Socialism attract the violent. Sanders, coming off as a communist, attracts the violent.

If you find yourself near a Bernie supporter, do not let your guard down. It seems that they want to take your stuff and will use violence to get it. Someone publicly proclaiming their support for Sanders should be viewed in the same light as someone publicly proclaiming their support for anti-semitism or their support for pedophilia or Star Trek: Discovery or gulags. These people are not to be trusted.
